There is a reported second pulse found signaling from the missing flight MH370 that disappeared March 8th 2014. Australian officials say that the second signal detected by a Chinese ship aiding in the search efforts of the missing airplane is consistent with those of the aircraft's black box. Australian and US officials have not yet verified the pulses are coming from the missing flight. Only god knows, hopefully this mystery will be solved soon and the family member of the missing aircrafts passengers will finally be able to know the truth.
Battery power is fading in the black box recorder and only a little bit of time is left to be able to find it.

Saturn's Moon Candidate For Life
One of Saturn's 50 moons, Enceladus is now considered a top candidate for life.
Buried underneath miles of ice, there is a liquid sea the size of Lake Superior. Scientists had previously suspected Enceladus may have an underground ocean.
This latest study calculated the density of material in different parts of Enceladus after three gravity-measuring flybys.
Those measurements revealed there's something underneath Enceladus' ice in the south that's denser than the ice.
Liquid water is the most likely explanation, says David Stevenson, a planetary scientist at the California Institute of Technology who also worked on the study.

Windows 8.1 Update 1 Features Reveiled
Microsoft release's the first update to the Windows 8.1 Operating System. Windows 8.1 Update 1 is set to be released April 8, 2014.
Some of the new features:
Boot straight to the Desktop: As was previously rumored, Windows 8.1 Update 1 will allow users to boot and resume straight to the classic desktop UI, allowing them to bypass the tiled Modern UI altogether. This will likely be a welcome feature considering that the Modern portion of Windows 8 hasn’t been well received since it debuted back in late 2012.
Changes to the Taskbar: With Windows 8.1 Update 1, you can use both desktop programs and Windows Store apps from the classic desktop UI. Windows Store apps will also work on the desktop UI’s Taskbar as well, and a new button on the Taskbar will permit you to access the Windows Store without forcing you to dive into the Modern UI to do so. With Windows 8.1 Update 1, the Taskbar will be accessible while using Modern apps by moving your mouse pointer to the bottom of the screen.
Tweaks to the Modern UI Start screen: The Modern UI Start screen will also receive some tweaks, including dedicated Power and Search buttons. The addition of a dedicated power button in the Start Screen will allow users to power their PCs off without having to open the Charms menu, shaving some seconds off the process of shutting down their systems. Newly installed Modern apps will be labeled “New,” and will pull up a drop-down menu when right-clicked, as opposed to the bar on the bottom of the screen.
